Sagot :

Answer: A) Coolant leak

Explanation:

When there is a leak in the coolant of a car's engine, it leaks through the engine's combustion chambers where it is combusted upon startup. The white smoke is indicative of the coolant being combusted otherwise if it is a fuel leak, color of the smoke turns into blueish or thick gray smoke.
